Hello Friends,
I am not able to understand the usages of "HTTP Load Balancers".
I have configured a cluster of two server on Sun App Server and than setup IIS 5.0 plug-in. Every thing is working fine and I can see there is load balancing as well as failover. I have not defined any HTTP Load Balancers. My loadbalancer.xml is below:
I am not able to understand, where does this "HTTP Load Balancers" fit in this scenario.
<loadbalancer>
<cluster name="testcluster1" policy="round-robin">
<instance name="test1" enabled="true" disable-timeout-in-minutes="60" listeners="
http://machine1:38082" weight="100"/>
<instance name="test2" enabled="true" disable-timeout-in-minutes="60" listeners="
http://machine2:38081" weight="100"/>
<web-module context-root="/test" enabled="true" disable-timeout-in-minutes="60" error-url="sun-http-lberror.html" />
<health-checker url="/test/test.jsp" interval-in-seconds="300" timeout-in-seconds="30" />
</cluster>
<property name="reload-poll-interval-in-seconds" value="60"/>
<property name="response-timeout-in-seconds" value="30"/>
<property name="https-routing" value="true"/>
<property name="require-monitor-data" value="true"/>
<property name="active-healthcheck-enabled" value="false"/>
<property name="number-healthcheck-retries" value="3"/>
<property name="rewrite-location" value="true"/>
</loadbalancer>
Please help me to understand the concept of "HTTP Load Balancer"!
Regards,
Qumar
